A-12 Streetsweeper (Autoshotgun Replacement)

"Man, this thing's the gift that keeps on gibbing!" ~ Sam Stone probably.

I updated the Serious Sam 4 version of this weapon a while back and finally got around to porting these changes over to Siberian Mayhem. Aside from the weapon being re-branded from the Penetrator to the Streetsweeper, the only major changes this weapon has received is to the Netricsa description and spread pattern. The spread is a bit less centralized to allow for better crowd control at mid range, though most of the pellets are still focused around the middle of the crosshair. As for the Netricsa description, I re-wrote it from scratch and also added in a "Tip" section (stats now also reflect the damage properly).

List O' Changes:

- Damage type changed from Slug to Piercing
- Added a custom DryFire sound cue (courtesy of Neiser) that plays when there's 6 shells or less in a magazine
- Bullets fired per shot increased from 7 to 9
- Pellet count increased from 6 to 9
- Damage reduced from 10 to 9
- Overall damage (if all pellets connect) increased from 70 to 81
- Bullet Range reduced from 500 to 80
- Horizontal spread is now a bit tighter and the majority of the pellets are centered around the crosshair center
- Magazine size increased from 20 to 25
- New Netricsa weapon title, description, and damage stats!
- New "tips" section added to Netricsa!

Tips & Strats:

- One shot will always stun a Kleer, if all pellets hit
- Use it against large groups of fodder to thin them out quickly
- Very effective at shredding big opponents
- Sustained fire can stunlock and kill 'Soul Knights'
- Pairs well with the Minigun and Cluster Bomb
- CANNOT pierce through Zealot armor or Legionnaire shields/helmets
- If using the 'Mix it Up' perk, try pairing it with the Crossbow, Devastator, or Laser for a good mix of long range offense and close range defense, or double down on damage output with the Burner or Minigun!

I hope y'all enjoy this new version of the Autoshotgun and feel free to share your thoughts below!
